    Magnum 3000 Stackable Hubs There is no upgrade from a Model 3012 to a Model 3024 since it would not provide an economical method of adding ports. Note that the high degree of stacking of Magnum 3000s - up to 20 units! - provides essentially unlimited expansion of the number of users by adding more units to the stack.
